Abstract
The environment is not only the ensemble of elements that is present in a context, but it is also the ensemble of relationships between these elements. For this reason, in a complexity’s society, educating to environment entails paying attention to people, relationships, and to dialogue opportunities among them. This case study underlines intercultural dialogue opportunities that could be created by an educational path of environmental education in a Primary School. This experimental research has led to the construction of a Mediterranean Garden in the outward space of the school. Through education on environment and biodiversity, it is possible to put foundations for dialogue between different cultures, as different are biological species that form Mediterranean GardenI documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
